Election Judges: Learn About Serving
|
Visit this page for an insight into serving as an election judge. Illinois election judges are community volunteers representing both major political parties as required by the Illinois Election Code. The LWVCC Voter Ready team asked former election judges from both major parties to comment on their experience.
See the Champaign County Clerk's page on election judges for information on qualifications, duties, and more. |
Radio Public Service Announcements
|
See the Radio PSA page for a series of radio Public Service Announcements (PSAs) developed by LWVCC members to announce election-related dates and information. These were created initially in 2022 and have been updated for the current election season. They are available for download and use. Both 15- and 30-second texts are available. Users may change the years or type of election (primary or general) mentioned in each PSA so the text is current.

Youth Video and Graphics [this section to be updated.]
|
Visit the Youth Video and Graphics page for a collection of videos and graphics developed by and for youth, originally created in 2020. These items were developed to encourage high schoolers/youth to participate in the election, including registering, voting, and serving as election judges. Everyone is encouraged to share them on social media, embed them on websites, and otherwise use them to encourage youth registration, voting and turnout. Also see the Youth Outreach and Civic Engagement page for more information on this LWVCC team's activities.

Misinformation about Elections [This section to be updated.]
|
Visit the Misinformation about Elections page to learn about misinformation in elections and to see some useful tools and presentations. The information on this page is intended to be used by anyone to bolster confidence in the democratic process by sharing ways to get the facts out and educate the community about voting and elections. One strategy is pre-bunking: sharing accurate information widely, ideally BEFORE misinformation can take hold.
